[kionashi]

Im I doing something wrong? I can't rotate the map during combat and I refuse to believe such basic feature is not in the game :(

Why can't I rotate the map? This game's beautiful backgrounds are hand-painted 2D backgrounds. As a result, it is therefore impossible to rotate the view.

That feature does not exist as the game is 2D, not 3D. It is made to where you can see / interact with anything without needing to rotate.

That's debatable. Some of the treasure chests are almost completely obscured by the scenery, I couldn't spot a few of them and had to google up the coordinates to unlock the cheevo for finding all of them and satisfy my completionist OCD.

A few chests/secrets are intentionally partially obscured to make them more hidden.

"Partially" does not mean what you think it means. Quite a few of them are, in fact, 100% obscured. That is not "partially" anything.

"A few" does not mean what you think it means. Some are fully hidden, some are not. The word you're thinking of is "all".

beautiful art, but wish we can rotate these maps...

There have been more than one occasion when I could NOT click on a tile I was trying to move to or attack doing to it be blocked by higher ground or something in front of it. It is very annoying. I learned a few tricks, like targeting enemy and cycling through them to get to the one you want to attack, but that doesn't help when you just want to move to the tile.

[Brids17]

Move via the keyboard, not the mouse. That fixes the issues. Mouse control for this game is kinda meh and while it takes some getting used to, the game can be controlled very well entirely with the keyboard.

ColdBlue, ok, thanks for the advice!

this was one the dumbest things ever... they should of added it. Several games like this dont have the map ajustment why? There is no reason for it other than someone wanting this game to be there way and there vision and thats fine but you make the game for you or for the fans?

Actually, if you look very closely, there is a little scroll wheel that helps move the cursor to the impossible to click on squares. I played for about 100 hours before I noticed that (sighs).

The maps are hand drawn flat maps. There is no easy way to simply rotate the maps unless they add 3 more drawings for each map to show the new angles.

they could of done better thats for sure but thats why the player count is almost nil.
